Description
Burley House, formerly known as No.12 Cornhill House, is a building located on Clarendon Road in Leeds. It was constructed in 1868 and features early 20th-century alterations. The house was designed as Hyde Gardens by architect George Corson for George Herbert Rayner.
The building is made of red brick with stone details and has a slate roof. It stands two storeys high with a basement and attic, arranged in a 2 x 3 bay configuration on a corner site. There are steps leading up to the raised ground floor on the left, where a glazed door is set in a slightly projecting full-height rebuilt gabled bay. To the right, there is a semicircular full-height bay on an arcaded basement storey, supported by octagonal stone columns and shouldered arches. The ground floor features three 4-pane sash windows with curved glass, stone mullions, and lintels, while the first floor has three narrower sash windows. The eaves cornice is made of moulded bricks, and the roof is conical.
On the right return, there are segmental-headed and round-arched openings, with darker brick used to decorate the window heads. The moulded brick eaves cornice extends over the attic gable on the right, which has a gabled dormer in the center. The ornate attic storey on the left includes four 4-pane sash windows in a hipped-roof dormer, flanked by turrets with slit vents and spires topped with ornate finials. A truncated stack is located at the far right. The interior has not been inspected.
